OMG Funny! For Mothers only! Men can be Mothers too.
Edited on Fri May-11-07 02:49 PM by lonestarnot
From Ellen D. Show

So, we had this great 10 year old cat named Jack who just recently
died.

him

long

> > Well, we have 3 kids and at the time of this story they were 4
years

loves

losing

needed to

My two

Everything is

am

my

into

is

Jack

was the

been

Happy Mothers day early DUer Moms!

9. As a stay at home dad, I think that is the best story of the holiday! I've had that feeling a few
too many times, but it always ends up as the best story.

Guess you probably always wipe off your chapstick before you use it now don't you?

22. That's hilarious but here's a true story: One of my friends brushes his dog's teeth
with his (my friend's) toothbrush.

27. too funny, thanks!
Out of the mouths of babes. Kids are so innocent and cool.

I once did some foster care for this geriatric older cat, Tigger who had a thyroid problem, causing him to have a voracious appetite, yet he was emaciated. He had come from a woman who passed away leaving behind seven cats and two dogs. I had seen Tigger at this shelter that I volunteer at and fell in love with him, so they let me take him home to give him some proper love. I knew that it was basically hospice care- for a cat- but what can I say- I am a big softie.

Well, Tigger unfortunately died at the ripe old age of 18. I was crying over him one day and my 14 year old daughter came up to me with a hug and said "do you know where Tigger is? He is in heaven. And he has a girlfriend. And they had babies."

When I reminded her that Tigger had been neutered, she countered with "Mom! This is heaven. Anything is possible."
